Mannheim's Ideas
our society's ideal of normal so they can sell. Believing that children (manly boys) will only want to play with male action figures is a great example of Mannheim’s ideology.
Chapter three stay with me the most because I seen how excluding a female character effected my daughter. I love Star Wars: The Force Awakens, because a woman, and every movie before played the newest Jedi that men were the Jedi. My daughter also feel I love with the idea of a female Jedi and wanted an action figure, when we found out it was not possible because they didn't exist my daughter was visibly upset and wanted to know why nobody made Ray. To make social change in the way society sees and views women is by starting by teaching the boys and girls at a young

    She touches several themes and issues such as injustice, racism, and integration. Injustice and racism are represented at least some significant part of the book. These issues have been tied up with Japanese cultural values throughout the novel. All of these issues are woven together in an elegant narrative which narrators constantly change.

    Reading all this books made me realize what feminism really is and how it revolves around matrifocal, matrilineal and matriarchal. All these stories talks about the women in different ages have gone through. All these stories are all connected by the message they give. The first story was the introduction from Bell hooks book. my first impressions and personal response of the reading is that people judge us women way too much. They think we can't do things because who we are. Reading further along made me feel really sad that people don't believe in us women we are downgraded by society and that influences the people. Us women have so much to bring to the table as well as men do, we are human and should be treated like humans. One strengths…

    Toy Evaluation

    1. I did my research on toys at Target. What I discovered was that mostly all gender-neutral toys have to do with educational toys and toys for children whose mindset does not see that’s a girl or boy toy. All the gender-neutral toys were colorful, but mostly used green, blue, yellow, and red colors, thus making targeting boys and girls. What I found in the masculine toy section was that mostly all the toys were blue, black, or dark colors. Lots of toys promoted violence like the Nerf guns and Power Ranger toys with their swords and killing the bad guys. They also promoted sports balls and cars only in the boy section when girls can play with these as well. What I found interesting is that they had Jake and the Neverland Pirates toys and in that show they have a girl pirate, but her toy was nowhere to be found. They had dress up things for boys, but they only involved mostly hand accessories, like The Hulk hands and Wreck it Ralph hands, which are used to hit people. Lego toys were mostly all cars, airplanes, and superheroes they did not involve any kind of home making. Another thing the boy section had was a “boy dollhouse”, which was a joker jail for batman to lock up the joker. I like how they make is seems as if it is not a dollhouse. Now the feminine toy section was so bright and pink, no other colors were really used, but pink. Mostly all the toys in this section promoted home making due to the fact that all the baby dolls had accessories such as strollers, swing, carriers, high chair, play pen, bottles, play food. The play food was even in a pink box. Dress up clothes involved full outfits only dresses, crowns, jewelry, high heels, and hairpieces. The Lego toys all involved pink colors and houses with moms, babies, and dad’s hardly any other variation of play. I also found the Bratz dolls to be very interesting and very grown up for little girls. The Bratz dolls were wearing very sexy clothing like very short skirts, shirts, high heels, and make-up. They are…

    “Girl” & Barbie Doll

    • 2455 Words

    In the past, women were always considered the subordinate gender that was expected to powder their nose and stay at home to be a homemaker. Even now, despite the movement to liberate women from stereotypical gender roles, women are still seen as the inferior gender that is discriminated against in society. As suggested by the popular Barbie doll created by Mattel, the idealized image of a woman in our patriarchal society is one who takes care of the home and is flawlessly beautiful with perfect skin, long legs, small waist, and slender figure. The Barbie doll is used as a tool for patriarchy in that it reinforces the notion that women should be domestic workers and maintain a feminine outer appearance. Also, patriarchal values affect girls starting at a young age as they unconsciously begin to believe that Barbie is what a woman should look and be like. With the appeal and popularity of this doll for the past several years, it is difficult to alter the notions of womanhood suggested by this doll. This implies that patriarchy is something we can not permanently overthrow because it is so deeply rooted in our society.…
